I was awakened an hour ago (3am) by lightning and thunder here in SE arizona

Now it is pouring rain and I have discovered two leaks. Hundreds of very close lightning strikes. Exciting. I don't think I'll be able to sleep any more tonight.

And the arroyos are full I'm sure. Still pouring here. It has been one of the wettest monsoons in many years. We sure need the water.
My land looks like a jungle.
